F. Zablotskij), and The Southern Carpathians (edited by D. Ioane). The monographs summarise. the latest geoscience results, available on these regions, with particular emphasis on the project’s objectives. There is also a sixth volume by Vyskocil and Sledzinski which contains general characteristics of all regions, list of performed studies and a summary, indicating some proposals for future investigations. The second phase of the Project CERGOP-2 includes three new member countries (Albania, Bosnia&Herzegovina and Bulgaria); extension of the CEGRN results in accepting in total more than 60 CERGOP (CEGRN) sites. Thus the extension of the geographic area of the project concludes in establishing the Central European Extended GPS Reference Network (CEEGRN). The great role play the existing permanent satellite stations for maintenance of the Central European Terrestrial Reference Frame (CETRF), which is best suited for regional tectonic investigations; it is also envisaged to introduce CEEGRN network as a subnetwork of the EUREF permanent network. The calculation and interpretation of the 3D tectonic velocity field covering the Central European Region will be continued; the geodynamic investigations of interesting regions of Central and Southern Europe will be extended. New CERGOP-2 Study Groups were established. They are the following: CSG. 1 CERGOP stations and site quality monitoring chaired by G. Virag (Hungary); CSG.2 Coordination of CERGOP analysis centres.- G. Stangl (Austria); CSG.3 CERGOP Reference Frame and geokinematic modelling - J. Hefty (Slovakia) CSG.4 Height determination and atmospheric effects - J Simek (Czech Republic); CSG.5 Geotectonic analysis of the region of Central Europe J. Sledzinski (Poland) and P. Vyskocil (Czech Republic); Groups for regional investigations: CSG5/1 Monitoring of recent crustal movements in Eastern Alps and the North and Eastern Adriatic with GPS - C. Marchesini (Italy); CSG.5/2 Three dimensional plate kinematics in Romania - D. Ghitau (Romania); CSG.5/3 Integration of present geodynamic investigations in the Pannonian Basin - G. Grenerczy (Hungary); CSG.5/4 International geodynamic test area Plitvice Lakes - chairman to be nominated; CSG.5/5 Geodynamics of the Tatra Mountains - K. Czarnecki (Poland) and M. Mojzes (Slovakia); CSG.5/6 Geodynamics of Northern Carpathians-F.Zablotskij; CSG.6 Real time monitoring by GPS - A. Nardi (Italy); CSG.7 Maintenance and update of the permanent sensor array - M. Becker (Germany) and P. Pesec (Austria). According to the requirements of the EC 5th Framework EU Programme the proposal must be divided into work-packages. The following seven work-packages for CERGOP-2 are proposed: WP1: Enhancement of the Permanent CEEGRN Network, WP2: Maintenance and Extension of CEEGRN, WP3: Central European Terrestrial Reference Frame, WP4: Tropospheric Delay Estimation, WP5: Ionospheric Modelling, WP6: Real Time GPS Applications, WP7: Local Deformation Studies in Central Europe. 3. PROGRAMME EXTENDED SAGET For technical reasons the number of sites of the CEGRN was limited to 31. It is successfully supplemented by the programme EXTENDED SAGET which was initiated by the Institute of Geodesy and Geodetic Astronomy of the Warsaw University of Technology in 1991 as an extension of the Polish Project SAGET (Satellite Geodynamic Traverses) launched at this Institute in 1986. There is a significant coincidence of scientific aims of both projects CEGRN and EXTENDED SAGET; however, there are also very essential differences. The EXTENDED SAGET network covers much more extended area and an unlimited number of points can be incorporated to this network. This gives an excellent opportunity to all participating institutions to connect new established points to the ITRF coordinate system. EXTENDED SAGET campaigns are thought as a long-term action and will be performed every year at least in the whole of current decade. So far, the EXTENDED SAGET campaigns were organised in the following periods: EXTENDED SAGET 1992, September 7-11; EXTENDED SAGET’1993, August 2-6; EXTENDED SAGET' 1994, May 2-6; EXTENDED SAGET 1995, May 29 - June 3; EXTENDED SAGET 1996, June 10-15; EXTENDED SAGET 1997, June 4-10; EXTENDED SAGET'1998, June 27 to July 1. EXTENDED SAGET’ 1999, June 14-19 In order to have more points related to the same epoch of observation the four campaigns of EXTENDED SAGET 1994-1997 and the campaign 1999 fully overlapped the period of CEGRN campaigns. The following conclusions may be pointed out when comparing both projects: (1) The same standards of GPS observations are observed in both CEGRN and EXTENDED SAGET campaigns, (2) EXTENDED SAGET network includes stations of Scandinavia and Mediterranean Region. CEGRN is limited only to CEI countries; only some regions of Germany, interesting from tectonic point of view, are included, (3) EXTENDED SAGET campaigns give the possibility to connect to ITRF system new points that may be currently needed, (4) Both networks (projects) can coexist. Campaigns of both projects may supplement each other. 4. PERMANENT STATIONS IN THE RESEARCH PROGRAMMES OF THE CEI Over the past few years many permanent satellite stations, whose positions are determined basing on permanent twenty- four-hour GPS observations of highest accuracy, began their operation. These stations belong, above all, to the International GPS Service for Geodynamics (IGS) and to the EUREF network, but also to the national navigation services operating in the Differential Global Positioning System organised for various special economic purposes such as transport, communication, police, medical service, fire department etc. This situation raised new possibilities of using permanent observations to monitor certain short-term phenomena and made it necessary for us to develop new technological procedures related to the collection and processing of a very extensive observation data.
